The Instantiation component manages the Life Cycle Management of Control Loop Instances and their Control Loop Elements. It publishes a REST interface that is used to create Control Loop Instances and set values for Common and Instance Specific properties. This REST interface is public and is used by the CLAMP GUI. It may also be used by any other client via the public REST interface. the REST interface also allows the state of Control Loop Instances to be changed. A user can change the state of Control Loop Instances as described in the state transition diagram shown in section 2 above. The Instantiation component issues update and state change messages via DMaaP to participants so that they can update and mange the state of the Control Loop Elements they are responsible for. The Instantiation component also implements persistence of Control Loop Instances, control loop elements, and their state changes.When a user wishes to instantiate a Control Loop, they set values for the parameters of the Control Loop. Once the parameterization has been carried out, the Control Loop instantiated, with the metadata and whatever other artifacts are required being passed to the participants in the Control Loop. At runtime, the Control Loop can be monitored and analysed. It can also be updated  as required and can be deleted when it is on longer needed.

The Monitoring component reads updates sent by participants. Participants report on the state of their Control Loop Elements periodically and in response to a message they have received from the Instantiation component. The Monitoring component reads the contents of the participant messages and persists their state updates and statistics records. It also publishes a REST interface that publishes the current state of all Participants, Control Loop Instances and their Control Loop Elements, as well as publishing Participant and Control Loop statistics.

The Supervision component is responsible for checking
